I think this is crazily important. My biggest issue with Discord is that they have become the default hubs for issues and fixes. Over days, weeks, months and years those fixes get buried and harder to find, but the worst offender is that they are unindexable by default.
Its lovely to see someone doing this. I wish everyone would do this.
As ever, if you don't know Heroic, you can find their website with this link here
It seems like Matrix would be the go to, but Element still lacks many of the conveniences & some of the functionality of Discord.
And it also doesn't publicly index. Is it at least possible to look at convos without an account?
Not if the server you are trying to view it from has guest viewing disabled such as matrix.org.
Both are terrible for this purpose. You don't need fancy features for a Q&A.
